Use of LLMs to research, +analyze or debug a contribution is allowed as long as no LLM-generated +output is included in the contribution. + +There are two exceptions where LLM output may be included in a contribution: + +(1) The output consists solely of trivial changes such as spelling or +code formatting. + +(2) The LLM assists in the research or transcription of a contribution but +does not generate any of the content. This includes accessibility-related +uses of LLMs involving speech-to-text, for example. + +Contributors are not required to disclose the use of LLMs for these purposes. + +This policy may be reviewed or updated when the copyright status and +Developer's Certificate of Origin (DCO) compatibility of LLM-generated +output is clarified. -- 2.53.0
